About Angelfish Reef
Angelfish Reef is a photo-friendly reef on the lee side of Norman Island, with a rocky maze of canyons and ridges that taper into sandy channels. The route naturally alternates between wide-angle swim-through scenery and sheltered pockets where you can slow down for macro life. Divers may spot nurse sharks resting in the structure, green moray eels tucked into crevices, and large lobsters under ledges, with anemone life becoming especially vivid on night dives.
